who: @staudrina​ what:  wouldn’t you like to know weather boy where: the block party besties!

Alice and Audrina, perhaps not the most expected, but skin longed for skin ( okay, buffalo bill ). Alice and Audrina, once worlds together, now worlds apart. And how funny it was that being worlds apart was what had drawn them! Oh, the world did work in mysterious ways. Were they good ways? Who was Alice to know! But, spotting Audrina and making the so very calculated decision to approach her gal pal ( do you hear that, mama and papa Archer? they’re just gals being pals ! ), one question plagued her mind… because Audrina was not often so simple as to say what her thoughts on given matters really were. Conditioning, they would call it! “Hargrove made a bold choice, yeah?” The bait was set! Then, withdrawing a cigarette, she held it towards the gal who was a pal. “Wanna keep slowly killing yourself with me? It’s very tragic, so it’s very sexy.”

🥀

There was a sort of calm that Audrina felt knowing she once again had a safety net to fall back on. Even if it did mean another year of holding the title of Miss Cherry Town Slut, which of course was less than ideal. Still, she couldn’t shake the paranoia as she glanced over her shoulder for any possible lingering eyes. Audrina took a long look at the cigarette, then Alice before finally shaking her head. This time, she was going to make sure she wouldn’t be caught. ❝  Actually, now that Candy Girl’s gone, I’m feeling pretty hopeful for the future. I don’t know about you but I’m excited to see what the next semester holds for us. ❞  she answered, only realizing that higher education wasn’t in the cards for them all. It was such a strange thought considering that the girls all once spoke about enrolling into UCLA together. They used to do a lot of things together. She was still close to Zahra and Kitty but she wasn’t even exactly sure who Alice was anymore. No matter how many dark and steamy nights spent in the back seat of their car, Alice still somehow felt like a stranger. Part of her thought that once they had defeated that psycho obsessed with Alice all of them that things would start to fall back to how they were before. ❝  I actually came to give you this . ❞ She said as she held out a red envelope with a golden Archer wax seal which only meant one thing -- ❝  The annual Archer summer garden / slumber party is this weekend.  All the girls are coming over . Yes, even Libby . ❞

Zahra didn’t bother to hide her fond smile at Audrina’s laugh, and it only grew when she started complaining about Kitty. There was an ease to this, wasn’t there? Now that the weight of the Candy Girl’s gaze was lifted, and thoughts about why she was still in Cherry were momentarily banished, she could just enjoy the lightness of listening to her best friend talk. “I mean, duh. Of course she told me. It’s me,” she replied. Zahra Jackson, confidence extraordinaire. Zahra Jackson, consistently lukewarm at most regarding Noah Russell. She was a pretty decent choice if you were, for some fucking reason, feeling insecure about Noah Russell of all people moving on from his crush on you. She hummed in half-hearted agreement as Audrina spoke, more just to show she was listening than anything. She was of the opinion that, really, if Kitty had admitted she cared, it would’ve seemed a little less childish. But discussing the dumpster fire that was Kitty’s obvious need for attention combining with Noah doing whatever the hell he was doing wasn’t exactly what she’d been angling for. 

She was quiet for a beat after Audrina’s question, straightening up a little so she wasn’t leaning on her as much. “Specifics for specifics, Archer,” she answered, a warm sing-song lilt to the words that undercut any edge that might’ve been there during high school. “Or are you expecting me to believe you don’t know who picked up the boytoy?”

🥀

Audrina had hoped, prayed even that Zahra would have just dropped it. ❝ Since when have you gotten so interested in the Russell’s dating life ? Perhaps I’ve been playing matchmaker to the wrong pair. ❞ she teased until it became increasingly clear that her friend was nowhere near budging. Finally, she decided if sacrificing Noah from a lifetime of bland TV dinners was what she had to forfeit for some  intel, she’d be sure to schedule him in for a fancy brunch.  ❝ Wait -- do you really not know ?  ❞ She asked, unwilling to let go of that inner chaos parasite that screamed to be fed.  ❝ I mean, you and Rory are so close. I thought she would have told you by now. ❞ If she was going to be the one to announce the happy couple, she wasn’t going to do it without a little drama. ❝ Oh please ! ❞ she exclaimed throwing her head back, ❝ You know that no guy outside the group has dared to near us with a 10 foot pole. Lest they be labeled an accessory -- and so not the cute kind. ❞

who: @staudrina​ what: oops people know now and zev’s freaking out! where: block party!

There was nowhere Zev would rather be less than his stepfather’s weird booth, so he was quick to offer to help set up his mom’s booth instead. As he helped her unload the salvaged inventory from the boxes they’d packed up that morning, he kept one eye out for the person he’d been needing to talk to for days. He’d been avoiding her, avoiding everything. But he’d have to talk to her about it someday, he knew that. It was better sooner than later, so when he finally does see her walking by, he drops everything. “I’ll be right back, Ma!” Is all he calls out to Jillian as he dashes out and grabs Audrina by the arm, pulling her off the main block, somewhere more secluded. “We have to talk,” he says, as firmly as his clearly anxiety filled voice will allow, as he looks around to make sure no one is around to hear them.

🥀

Small town gossip really shouldn’t affect her as much as it did, not after all she had been through. Yet she couldn’t help but take notice of the the heavy stares as she made her way through the crowd. Audrina was no stranger to whispered comments, her family had always stood as a prominent figure in Cherry but this felt different, yet eerily familiar. The country club moms giving their daughter shady looks, boys eyeing her as if they could ever stand a chance. Part of her tried to ration that this was all in her head, but as Zev approached her, Audrina knew exactly what was coming. With more than a few pairs of eyes blatantly watching the two, it had seemed that word traveled fast in their tiny town. So she simply asked, ❝ Who else knows ? ❞ 

[staudrina]

🥀 𝖔𝖕𝖊𝖓 𝖘𝖙𝖆𝖗𝖙𝖊𝖗 .

Even when it wasn’t the Archer’s event to host, Audrina was actively attentive to the needs of all in attendance. Ever so gracious as she offered to refill cups and collect their finished plates. The girl fluttered through the crowd, like a hummingbird pollinating the latest piece of gossip throughout Cherry Proper ( In the hopes she could distract everyone else from the news of her most recent beau. ) However, she was starting to find that fresh -- more rugged -- faces breaching their quaint little community. ❝ Is it just me, or are we noticing a certain influx of Southside riff-raff here tonight ? ❞ Audrina asked as she poured herself a drink. ❝ I’m sorry but wearing leather in a hundred degree heat is just ridiculous. Even if it is in the name of fashion. ❞

harveyiii​:

『 … ♘ … 』

Harvey felt his breath catch in his throat at the sight of her, and without volunteering for the smash-cut of their Greatest Worst Hits he was held subject to the summary in the back of his mind. He remembered when she had been all he wanted for his future - at least, it’s what he thought he might want back then when the world seemed smaller. He liked to think of the two of them escaping Cherry with their parent’s empires funding them every step of the way; he’d wondered if their kids would have her fiery red hair, or if they’d be cursed to the brunette mop that the rest of the Hargrove’s sported. He thought about a summer wedding - something to remember their childhood home by. 

It had all come crashing down when Audrina and Casey had broken his heart, and again when he caught Audrina kissing Lux. It was bad enough that she had cheated with his best friend; someone he loved more than anyone he knew - felt weird to even think, but it was true. At least that, they could probably get past someday: maybe the future Harvey had imagined could still exist. The realization that Audrina didn’t even like men was devastating. It meant he could never be enough, even if he could figure out what went wrong one day; goodbye forgiveness, and making up one day, and redheaded children. 

It had all been a pipe dream anyway. It was all proof that Harvey just needed to let go, and accept that Audrina was confused and searching to fill the hole in her chest, just like he was. Easier said than done now that he knows she’s “dating” his step-brother - or whatever they were doing. “What’s so bad about hiding in the orchard all night?” Harvey took a sip of the drink that had been glued to his hand all night. He looked in Audrina’s direction without ever really looking toward her - he thought it might make his chest ache, or something; thought it might make it impossible to even fake the small grin that was on his lips. A far throw from the way he was poking and prodding at Zev earlier that evening. “Used to nap out here when I had a little too much to drink, back in the day,” He brushed his hand against one of the branches, “Owe these trees everything if you really think about it” 

Harvey cleared his throat - stop fucking rambling, man. 

“Don’t you have, like… a party to oversee? Surprised to see you so willing to hide away too.” 

🥀 

Audrina’s whole life had been one long game of hostessing, parties of grandeur full of fake people with meaningless small talk. As fabulous as these events were, they simply served as a shallow distraction. It used to be just so easy to lose herself in the frills of it all . . . now, not so much. ❝ Need I remind you even Princess Di needed a break every once in a while ? ❞ She told him, her simple smile meeting his serious, sad expression for a moment before dropping her gaze. It was against her instinct to confront ugly truth, but after everything she knew she owed it to him. ❝ Look, Harvey . . . ❞ God, why was this so hard ? She had come face-to-face with death over a dozen times by now but this was still by far the scariest thing she had ever had to do. She was so lucky to have been loved by Harvey. He loved her despite of her flaws and she went and ruined it all. She wished she could have faked it all for him, played the part of a dutiful wife while he took after the family business. To be the perfect image of Cherry high society. Maybe have a kid or two. It killed her to know that a happy ending like that would never be in the cards for her. She wished so desperately that she didn’t have these feelings for so long. Her life would have been so much easier if she could just be normal. ❝ It’s been quite possibly the most insane year of the freakin’ millennium. Between all the death and murder,  the fact we’re both still here is nothing short of a miracle. We couldn’t have done it without you. I couldn’t have done it with you. ❞ Throughout all the chaos, no matter how bad things got, Audrina always felt safe as long as Harvey was there. Even when they weren’t speaking, with him by her side, she knew they would be alright. ❝ I realize that I never even apologized how things played out . . . back then. ❞ Her voice trembled as she forced out the words but she urged herself to steady. ❝ I know it’s hard to believe, but I never meant to hurt you. I just . . .  I just wish I could have handled things differently. ❞ With him, with Casey, but especially with Lux. Ouch. Well, that certainly would never stop hurting. ❝ I just hope that we can somehow move past this. . . I miss you, Harvey. I miss us. ❞

who: @staudrina​

where: somewhere a lil more private at the after party

Zahra had come to this party because, well, it was party, so duh. Plus raising money for the Drafthouse. But there was also something she’d been meaning to pester Audrina about now that the CherryPlex was behind them and what better chance would she have than a bonafide Archer party? Especially now that the night was getting later and both of them were probably as relxaed as they would get. “Audri!” Zahra greeted with a sing-song tone and an eager glint in her eye. She shoved a drink into Audrina’s hand, slinging her arm around the girl’s shoulder and taking a sip of her own. “A little kitten says you’ve got the deets on whatever the fuck’s going on with the lamest Russell. Spill and I won’t touch what I’ve heard about who you’ve been spending your time with. I won’t even get bitchy about me having to ask. Like, do you know how long it’s been since there’s been non-murdery gossip?”

🥀

❝ Oh, well hello there ! ❞ She greeted with surprise, laughing as she was captured by her friend. Her arm easily founding it’s way around Zahra’s waist as they walked in tandem, though with the amount of alcohol coming from the other girl’s breath and the drink in both their hands . . . she was starting to feel more like a crutch. Still, after the past few months they had, it was nice to see her friends so carefree. After all they had been through, they were finally able to move on with their lives. 

There was a flash of fear in Audrina’s eye. Had someone seen her and Alice ? No, that was impossible. They had been so careful. She only allowed herself to dispare for a fraction of a second before Audrina did what she knew best and quickly masked her true feelings with an eye roll.  ❝ UGH, of course Kitty told you. ❞ She groaned. There was a hesitance to let go of the brewing romance between Noah and Rory but her own self preservation quickly won over.  ❝ She’s SUCH a child. As soon as someone else picks up her little boytoy, she’s crying about how she was just about to play with it. It’s like so totally immature. ❞ But who said she had to go into the specifics ? She continued down the sandy beach, letting a beat pass in hopes of not sounding too desperate. God forbid she allow Zahra to believe she had any sort of power over her. ❝ Wait -- what are people saying about me ? ❞

The quaint small town shops are what made Cherry and the Archer businesses were only as good as those surrounding them. So when half the town went down in flames, the Archers were quick to strategize a way to keep the whole town’s property value from absolutely plummeting. ( Or whatever the fuck. I don’t know anything about real estate of property law. I don’t actually watch Riverdale ) In an effort to show her support to those struggling after the fire, Audrina tried to help in any way she could. At least for those directly involved with people she cared about. As she saw Casey cleaning up at the end of the evening, she decided to relay the good news herself.  ❝ Congratulations, The Russells have been graced with the exclusive carrying rights to The Archer’s Private Collection of our signature Cherry Wine. And the best part is, you don’t even have to pay until you’ve sold it all. ❞ If it was up to Audrina, it would have been a completely free gesture but Mommy and Daddy Archer didn’t exactly do hand-outs and it’s not like she believed the Russell’s would take it otherwise. ❝ No need to thank me. Do you think you could take a break to celebrate by popping open this bad boy ? ❞

🥀 𝖍𝖆𝖗𝖛𝖊𝖞 𝖍𝖆𝖗𝖌𝖗𝖔𝖛𝖊 / @harveyiii​

There was a lightness to Audrina that hadn’t been there since, well... ever since New York. It was like she could finally breathe again for the first time in almost a year. Despite the pure insanity of it all, the experience gave her a new perspective when it came to the friendships and relationships she had. So she determined to make the most of the rest of the summer with her friends before she went back to the East Coast. And that started with making amends with Harvey. He was the one person that knew her the best and whom she had hurt the worst, well maybe other than Lux. The fact that he hadn’t told anyone about what he saw, it had to mean something right ? 

❝ Please tell me you’re not planning on hiding in the orchard all evening, ❞ she said as she appeared from the neighboring row of trees. ❝ Not without me. ❞ As she crossed over to the same alley, it was then that Audrina had become acutely aware of how small the paths really were. The girl offered Harvey a smile despite the fact that the two had hardly shared any time alone together since before graduation. They say time and space heals pain, Audrina just hoped that for her sake that was true.

Audrina sighed as she looked upon the Rory Collins Memorial Photobooth which she may or may not have set up as a way to convince the whole town the girl had died. ❝ Oh Rory, I know we were never the closest but I’ll never forget the sacrifice you made for the group. I can only hope that God may have mercy of your soul. ❞  She closed her eyes for a moment, a deep breath before exhaling,  ❝ It’s like I can almost still feel you here with us. ❞

[staudrina]

🥀 𝖆𝖑𝖎𝖈𝖊 𝖆𝖉𝖑𝖊𝖗 / @alicealder​

It’s not like Audrina was out looking for Alice or anything, but she couldn’t help but notice she was the only one in the gang not actively out enjoying the festivities. She had to be around here somewhere. That’s when she got a whiff of tobacco in the air. Was it weird that she was starting to recognize the smell of the brand Alice smoked ? She hadn’t really thought about it too hard, instead she followed the trail, leading her to the back of the barn. It felt so obvious that Audrina felt stupid for not having just checked there first. Normally such cliché would have her roll her eyes in judgement but instead the girl subconsciously found herself smiling at the sight.  ❝ Am I interrupting something ? ❞ she asked cheekily as she took a step closer. ❝ You know smoking is strictly prohibited on Archer Farms. . .❞ she reminded her, especially after half the town burned to a crisp. ❝ But perhaps I’m willing to make an exception this one time . . . ❞ There was a part of her that wanted to reach out and touch Alice but god forbid anyone come looking for the pair. Instead her eyes flicked between the cigarette box and the other girl’s lips, ❝ Can I have one ? ❞

Now that Candy Girl was gone ( Hallelujah ! ) it was like everything was back to the way things were supposed to be. The scales were finally back in balance and Audrina Archer was back to being the main psycho bitch and puppetmaster of Cherry, California. Titles she held almost as fondly as that of her pageant wins. ❝ Did you see Noah and Rory go into the maze ? I think I might actually barf.  ❞ she scoffed, taking a sip of her drink but then a lightbulb went off. ❝ Wanna go mess with them in maze ?  ❞

who: open! what: sharing is caring where: by the food trucks

It should have been relaxing. It should have been a huge relief. Their major tormentor for the past year was gone. Truly gone. Dead and gone. But of course, Cherry would take even their relief from them. Half the town burned up, including his mom’s business (and his own place of employment, rest in peace to all those videos!). He had to be grateful that it had been done in the middle of the night, when no one was at the store. He’d never been grateful to Hargrove before, but in this one instance it was nice to know that he and his mom would still have a roof over their heads after this, something that wouldn’t have been a guarantee before their marriage.

It was clear this party was supposed to give them back some of that relief they were supposed to feel, some of that freedom, but he couldn’t help feeling a bit outside of it all. He ordered food at the truck without even looking at the menu, only to realize when he held the large sandwich in his hand that he wasn’t that hungry. “Hey,” he started, turning to the nearest person. “Do you want half this sandwich? I was not expecting it to be this big, there’s no way I can finish it. I actually don’t even know what’s in it, though, so…”

🥀

Audrina looked at the sandwich in destain then at Zev with a snarl on her face as if he had just insulted her.  ❝ I don’t do carbs. Also, I’m allergic to tomatoes. You should know that. ❞ she responded with destain, ❝Not just as my... ❞ the redhead glanced around to make sure no one was within earshot, ❝ boyfriend .❞ Dear Lord, the word was still such a weird thing to associate Zev with even after the past few months. ❝ But as my friend too. ❞ It’s not as if they were particularly close before they began fake dating, but Audrina liked to think that their many forced evenings had brought them closer. After all, everyone, especially the gang, knows that nothing brings people closer than a shared secret.

She couldn’t help but roll her eyes at the sandwich the size of the guy’s head. ❝ Just throw it away .❞ she told him, who cares about five bucks away? That’s when she felt the sudden heavy weight of her parents gaze on them. Audrina turned stiffly with a forced beauty pageant smile. ❝ Wave, babe .❞ she said through gritted teeth before looking back at him, ❝ I think now is a perfect time to head into the maze.❞ she noted, wanting to get the obligatory show out of the way. ❝ Care to escort me ? ❞

The last thing he’s expecting to see after he gets home from his shift is the sight of Audrina in his room. But there she is and he’s… made her wait? “Uh… shit, sorry.” Slips out before he even really realises what he’s saying. Really only Audrina Archer could ever make him feel like he’s late to a meeting he didn’t know was happening in his room of all places. But still, she’s earnt his loyalty over the years and he’s not about to turn down one of her requests now - even if the proposal leaves him with more questions. So, he slumps down next to her armed with a raised brow and a grin. “I’ve never been more relieved to hear those words. Believe it or not I think I’m all secret passaged out. You gonna tell me what you’re borrowing me for? Or is that part a surprise?” 

🥀

As much as Audrina wanted to keep things hush, hush and lead Casey blindfolded until they got to their next destination. She decided to forgo the mystery in lieu of one perfectly normal day. Audrina just wanted one day that felt like it had before . . . before Candy Girl, before Lux, before she ruined everything. ❝ I need a model actually, ❞ she finally let up only to realize the implications that came with the request as she spoke the words aloud. ❝ Like for real. This is for my final. You’re the only one in this town that can pull off the Dennis Rodman vibe that I need. ❞ She told him as she picked up her purse from the bedroom floor and hung it over her shoulder. ❝ So are you coming or must I resort to bribery ?  ❞

“No!” The answering tumbled out of her mouth without hesitation after Audrina had called her out for caring. The last thing she needed right now was to stray too far from the part she was meant to play and get cut off by the popular girls. It wasn’t until the older girl was leaning across the table that Kitty started to let the facade slip again. “I don’t know. I read some of the things he wrote me.” Even if she told the cheerleaders who knew about it that she just threw it away. “It was like really sweet.” How did she explain to Audrina what that meant to her? How it soothed the looming insecurity that followed even though she had wormed her way into Cherry’s elite. Everyone looked at her, but it felt like Noah saw her. Any little fight with Audrina, Zahra, or even Lux had the power to send her spiraling. It wasn’t the kind of power she thought Noah had too. They never had to find out because whenever she turned around, he was there. Now, not only was he not giving her attention, he was giving it to someone else. It was a rude awakening to find out it came with the same sting that followed every time Lux brushed her off. Typical of Kitty to only want something once she finds out she can’t have it. “But that’s exactly what this is about. Embarrassment.”

🥀

❝ That’s so sweet, I think it might have given me a cavity . . . but if I have to hear some love poems about Rory Freakin’ Collins and her hand me down sweaters, I think I may actually hurl.❞ At the end of the day, Audrina did want what was best for Kitty. There were only so many people in Cherry as genuine as Noah and she had hoped her protégé would eventually realize what was standing right in front of her.  ❝ Girls like us, we get odysseys written about us. However, you’re in treading rom-com quirky best friend status. ❞ she told the girl firmly, knowing that the biggest sin in a town like theres was fading into the background. ❝ So you better figure it out soon, otherwise you’ll be stuck singing “ I Say a Little Prayer for You ” with your homosexual side chick at the rehearsal dinner. ❞

zahrajackson​:

In the wake of secret murder trial re-enactment and yet another trip to the police station, there was a comforting familiarity to standing at Audrina’s side, hearing her berate subpar cheerleaders. Zahra tilted her head, scanning over the girls with a critical eye. “Don’t even talk to me about choreo - we’re doing the best we can with what we’ve got,” she replied, rolling her eyes. “It’s sloppy. We might have to rearrange some positions. This is so not front row material,” she commented, already mentally rearranging. “Reckon we should consider going scorched earth - scrap everything, hold some impromptu tryouts? Just threatening it’d probably scare them into putting in some actual effort,” she suggested, half-serious, an almost sadistic little sparkle in her eye.

🥀

❝ I like where your head’s at, babe. ❞ Despite all that they had been through, there would always be a part of her that loved to torture her girls. It was the one thing that made her feel like she still had a semblance of control. That she wasn’t just some sort of pawn in a psychopath’s game. ❝ Could you imagine the look on Kitty’s face ?  ❞ she spoke as she eyed her friend in the crowd, ❝ You think we could convince her to be our footstool for a spot, ya know, like the JV girls back in sophomore year ? ❞ She was joking, of course. She wouldn’t actually embarrass her friend like that, but she was feeling particularly bored recently.

“Am I supposed to be?” Audrina knew better than her. That was usually a blanket statement even Kitty would believe. Swallow down whatever feelings were bubbling in her chest and act how the popular girls would act. Feel the appropriate thing to. But this time, the crown stayed etched on Kitty’s glossed lips. Audrina didn’t understand. She was the kind of girl that could have Harvey AND Casey. At the same time! “Because I just feel…” Mad? Betrayed? Jealous? Truth be told, not even she knew. “Upset. Like, all of Cherry knew Noah liked me. Rory is like… so vanilla. You know how there are those girls that can have anyone they want because they’re pretty and act like they’re made of sugar, and then there are girls like us that are total catches and know it? Some boys are like so intimidated by that. She could have anyone! Why did she have to pick the one that liked me?” Kitty wasn’t lacking boy attention. Even the weird trail of murder following their group was enough to deter the parties and hookups, but they weren’t the same as Noah. They weren’t writing her poems or actually listening to things she had to say. “You think he’ll get over it, right? I mean, it’s Noah. I never thought he’d have any other options.”

🥀

❝ Careful Kitten, it sounds like you’re starting to care. ❞ And after all, cool girls did not care. They walked through life mysterious and numb, a survival tactic that Audrina had perfected after years. It was so much easier to hide behind indifference than a smile. Still, Audrina was only really messing with the girl. She had watched Noah and Kitty play their stupid game of lovesick chicken for years, at this point she was starting to think one of them would be murdered before either of them made a move. So she decided it was was up to her to give them a little nudge towards each other. ❝ Wait -- do you actually , like . . . like Noah ? It’s okay if you do. He was bound to wear you down at some point. ❞ she teased as she pushed the forgotten piece of pie to the side before leaning over the table, ❝ I will say, he’s a cutie. Too bad I already screwed his brother — anyways, it would be little embarrassing to lose him to Rory of all people. ❞ Sure, she could conspire with Kitty but Audrina could never fully let go of the puppet strings she had on her friends.

🥀  CLOSED STARTER FOR @caseyfm​

Audrina tried not to make a habit of asking for people for favors. It threw off the balance of power and control that she tried so desperately to keep a handle on. However, with the semester coming to a close and murder and mayhem still on the horizon, she just wanted to get things done and out of the way. She was just about done with her final project, but there was one last step she needed assistance with so she decided to ask the one person she could always count on. ❝ Casey ! Geez, finally. Took you long enough. ❞ Audrina welcomed him as he walked into his own room where she had made herself comfortable. ❝ Your uncle let me in. ❞ She explained, ❝ I need your help. Don’t worry it has nothing to do with murderous phantoms or exploring secret passageways. I just need to borrow you for an hour or two. ❞ And in true Archer fashion, she wasn’t exactly asking.
